Last project for the weekend....

Got tired of looking at the beat up gauge cluster , so I decide to pull it out and give it a fresh coat of paint and a good cleaning !!!

Looks good! That's what I did to mine since the chrome-esque stuff around the outside was all scratched off.

Yep get knobs off, undo chrome surrounds at knobs , perimeter screws , gasket bracket at steering column then reach up under and undo speedo cable... then when you get it out a couple of inches , reach in and unplug wiring harness....

If it has gauges you'll have to undo the oil gauge pressure line with a 5/16" wrench too.
